Tile Flexure Strength Tester

Tile Flexure Strength Tester: As per IS: 654 & 1237-1959. For carrying out transverse strength tests on cement concrete flooring tiles. The equipment consists of two bearing rollers and a third loading roller, all 25mm in diameter. The center distance of the bearing rollers can be set at 150, 200 or 250 mm. This loading is through double lever loading system by means of a steady flow of lead shot from a lead shot container to a receiver hung on the lever system. The rate of lead shot flow is adjustable to set the rate of loading as desired. When the specimen fails, the lead shot flow stops automatically and the breaking load can be calculated by multiplying the weight of lead shot in the receiver by the lever ratio i.e. 12. Maximum capacity of the machine is
